Convenient acquisition and quick entry. However, the venue has no infrastructure whatsoever to receive visitors. Full of renovations and interdictions, with no toilets or cafeteria, the price of tickets should have been half-price or less. It was disappointing, after so much walking and effort, not to find a place to rest, relieve ourselves and refresh ourselves.

Beautiful property with so much to see and explore!! The line up to enter could be better organized as there was a lot of overlap with people who show up early and those who show up late for their time slots so could have pylons and ropes to separate the lines and reduce confusion.

The access to the Castle was quick and fluent. But the content of the audio guide was under my expectations. It answered to the question "what do I see and where do I find it", but not to "why it was necessary, what symbols should I look for, what is the meaning behind, how unique and popular were these practices". I dont think it is worth paying extra for it.
